First of all, can you please define and explain the term ICS, because I dont know what it means . Secondly, I have everything else you say. Right now, I have a PC connected to the DSL modem and I can connect it to the second PC using a crossover cable. My gateway PC does have 2 NIC cards (one for modem and one for crossover cable) and the client PC has one NIC. I have all of this and I can set it up instantly. But how do you share Internet? I could setup a LAN, but the second PC (Windows 98 SE) cant have internet access shared. If you could help me solve this problem without the use of a HUB / Router then that would really help. I only have a switch from a friend, a router costs too much.......
